The Past, Present & Future of Beauty with beauty influencers Iye Bako and Francesca Murray

Beauty and Impact

It’s our final show of the season and we have an awesome episode for you! Ashley and Jasmine chat with beauty influencers Iye Bako, creator of @Iyeloveslife, and Francesca Murray of @onegrloneworld.

Together we look at the past, present, and future of beauty and sustainability. Our guests have grown up in the U.S. but like us, come from mixed backgrounds including Nigeria and Honduras with Garifuna roots so we had a lot to chat about how our cultural identities have impacted how we define beauty and what we are hoping to see in the future in the beauty industry for people of color.

In this episode we spill the green tea on:

• Generational beauty treatments
• Recycling beauty trends and how the beauty industry is monetizing traditional indigenous beauty rituals – skin slugging is not new!
• Ageism in the beauty industry and our hope to see more age diversity in marketing campaigns
• Shifting beauty trends from our youths to what we are seeing now
• How communities of color are impacted by climate change
